Cara and others - I have a NetBook with Leopard installed. It's trimmed down, Leopard that is. However, I'm using SlingPlayer, TextEdit, Safari, etc. I'm using the Dell Mini9. It's my favorite computer, especially for entertainment, surfing, etc. And my braille display works great with it, should I want that addition. And, Cara, the NetBook fits in my small to medium-sized purse! I had to do a presentation on a Vista machine at work today, and did not enjoy traveling with my Inspiron 1525 - smile! As for Mac, I hear tell that it's NetBook is going to be touch screen - not at all useful ... so you may have to wait for that iPhone!

I love the Air's form factor but still prefer my lil MB! For me, if the Air were smaller, I'd be much more likely to consider purchasing one. I love the way they look, but they're just too darned big for my tastes! lol! I definitely see Apple's side of things in terms of their reluctance to delve into the 'netbook' market, however, this trend is so large at the moment, that it's just a shame they're not really there. I would sooo prefer a small device running full-on OSX! (or even some flavor of it) This is one reason I so very much want an IPhone. I really would like a flavor of OSX that I can put in my purse. Don't get me wrong, I love having an accessible phone, but there's only so much Windows Mobile I can take! lol! So OSX (on a small device IPhone or netbook) would sure be a welcome addition to the market in my opinion. Anyway, great discussion!. Have an awesome day All!.

I figured that they would come out with a netbook.

I think Chris has his answer now, so we're cool. The idea of OSX on a netbook is certainly right on topic though, so please do feel free to post all you want on that!
